SyntaxError on python 3.5

[Sandro Tosi]

Hey there,
i got this error when installing dbf on python 3.5:

running install_scripts
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/dbf/_index.py", line 14
'\x00'*500) # and no indices
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

File "/usr/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/dbf/ver_2.py", line 7598
exec function in g
^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'exec'

Those a Python 2 files; you can ignore the errors (dbf should still be installed).

i guess then they should not be installed when running setup.py install with python3

[Sandro Tosi]

actually the _index.py issue applies also to python2:

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbf/_index.py", line 14

    '\x00'*500)                             # and no indices
         ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I'm working on a single code-base version so these types of issues go away.

This file isn't used. I'll make sure it's removed in the next release.

that's good news, thanks!! May i ask when do you foresee to release a
new version? that's just because I'm in the process of updating the
debian package so i'd like to understand if i can wait for a new
release
